Listen to it. A theme is starting: classic TV theme songs to use for our opening. Next week: Flintstones? I Love Lucy? Jay’s directorial debut: Jordan Frye’s music video for Holiday. We’ve come to a realization; we’re not productive enough to use productivity tools. James’ amateur sci-fi writing. Jay’s glowing review of Angelology: like Dan [...]
Every time he tries to podcast with either Josh or me, he gets thwarted due to our technology insufficiency, or forgetfulness, or both. I’m hoping he got something out of last night’s pathetic attempt, but in the middle of trying to podcast my computer crapped out. Meanwhile he’s got two computers running and a brilliant [...]
Listen to it. A show in the academic sense. Where to start? Jay is absent, James forgot his laptop and attempts multiple devices for recording/Skype, all of which fail miserably. But when it comes down to it, Josh’s internet connection is the true culprit. At least that’s what I’m sticking with. Our music is extra [...]
In his words he is “chaotic and lazy”. It’s hard to imagine the number one chess player in the world as such. Fascinating interview: SPIEGEL: Mr Carlsen, what is your IQ? Carlsen: I have no idea. I wouldn’t want to know it anyway. It might turn out to be a nasty surprise. SPIEGEL: Why? You [...]
Listen to it. View the chess game. Jay brings back the ripped-off opening. We have poor grammar so you don’t have to. Said the gramophone is kind of a weird music blog. Good music, gross elephant death pictures. Leads to Jay’s story about navy-assassinated beached whales; perhaps the first use of the word bejesus in [...]
The Ruy Lopez Show supports Ben Saunders’ attempt to become “the fastest man to walk solo and unsupported to the North Pole”. And by “support” we mean morally, not financially. Check him out at on twitter and his website. Good luck Ben. As we like to say at the Ruy Lopez Show. He goes to [...]
We’re back on the first page of results on Google for ruy lopez. I’m sure Ruy himself would be thrilled to hear that if he were alive and had any idea what Google, the internet, electricity, or indoor plumbing was. Now that we’re 9th, let’s work on 1st. Hopefully a new show tonight will convince [...]
We know it can’t have been easy to go without your favorite podcast in the history of podcasting, the internet, and the universe in general for four years. It must have seemed like an eternity. But we have returned with a new show! See you in another four years! Just kidding. Maybe. Listen to it. [...]
If any of our three devoted fans have suggestions on where to find free music, leave a comment for us. Notice: free. Not illegal. While we sometime tread onto the gray line in the RIAA’s eyes (which is easy to do, since the RIAA’s color spectrum on legality is strictly black and gray) we like [...]
